Dear Family and Friends,
Greetings in the wonderful name of Jesus!
How are you doing? I pray that this mail finds you blessed and well. First and foremost, I would like to take this opportunity to welcome Dr. Eddie King into our midst. Pastor Ed comes from Knoxville and he has a thriving and vibrant congregation. He is a great teacher of the Word of God and I want to ask you to come prepared to receive and draw from the man of God. I believe you will certainly be blessed.
On the other hand, another week has come and gone and I want to encourage all of you to stay focused and keep close to Jesus. Do not be easily surprised by disappointments or setbacks in life, for they are common. It is how we deal with all these things that builds strength and character on the inside of us. Remember, it is during adversity that we know ourselves better. So, as your pastor, I want to encourage you to spend more time in prayer. Pray not because you have to but pray because you need to know the heart of God. Pray because you need to draw strength and wisdom from God.
Apart from this, I also want to remind all of you to fulfill your Building Fund. April is the final month for us to fulfill our pledges and May is our grace period. After that, we will close our 4th Arise and Build season before starting it again in November. I want to ask you to plan out your finances wisely. Do not be reckless with your spending. Remember to set aside the amount that you have pledged to build the house of God. This is our spiritual heritage. This is our commitment.
Over the last couple of weeks, we have seen a lot of new friends coming back to church. It is a good thing. We have grown close to 100 people and I am praying that we will have an average of 1650 people by the end of May. Let’s work towards that and pray with greater fervency.
Your pastor and friend,
KEV
